Examples

Ways Notis can move work from Slack to Figma

View example

Turn Slack design feedback into Figma comments

Capture actionable design feedback shared in Slack and add it to the relevant Figma file as a comment, keeping critique close to the work.

View example

Acknowledge Figma reviews with a Slack reaction

When a teammate reacts to a Slack message to signal review approval, add a matching acknowledgment reaction to the related Figma comment.

View example

Add a Figma handoff note for new project channels

When a project channel is created, add a concise handoff comment to the identified Figma file so the design reference is easy to find.

View example

Attach implementation references to Figma nodes

When a Slack message shares a relevant implementation or ticket URL, attach it as a development resource to the corresponding Figma node.

View example

Record design decisions from Slack DMs

When a direct message contains a settled design decision, add a concise decision record as a comment in the relevant Figma file.

View example

Apply approved design token changes from Slack

When a Slack message confirms a token change, update the matching variables in the relevant Figma file using the agreed values.

View example

Turn review flags into Figma follow-up comments

When a teammate uses the agreed Slack reaction to flag a design review item, add a follow-up comment to the related Figma file.

View example

Resolve shared Figma links into design context

When a Slack message shares a Figma URL, use the link to discover the file and node context so the design reference is ready to act on.

View example

Bring Figma comment context into Slack follow-up

When a Slack channel message asks about feedback on a design, retrieve the Figma file's comments so the team can follow up with existing context.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Figma. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Slack triggers

Figma actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Add a comment to a file

TriggerInstant

Create, modify, or delete variables

Manages variables, collections, modes, and their values in a figma file via batch create/update/delete operations; use temporary ids to link new related items in one request and ensure `variablemodevalues` match the target variable's `resolvedtype`.

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
